Pete "El Conde" Rodriguez listed twice. Hey, this reads like a canned writing from either a music encyclopedia or a music promoters' website. Too non-NPOV, methinks... Demf (talk) 01:18, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, someone who seemingly admires Jerry Masucci seems to have edited both this and the Fania Records page gushing about his brilliant business acumen and how he created an industry out of nothing. Both pages had extensive biographies of the man as well as mini obituaries. Mr. Masucci has his own Wiki page, those things belong there. I am removing that content from this page. I agree with the non NPOV, I will try to clean it up... --Cuaya (talk) 19:21, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I do not know how successful previous attempts to reduce the highly inflamed fancruft have been, but I have pruned it heavily today. Also added the {Refimprove} tag, which MAY just provoke a few citations and much less adulatory claptrap.

I added an infobox and I am currently adding current and past members. This is a pretty big task since Fania has had MANY members throughout the years. I am also checking to see if each has their own wiki article and if not I am making a note so that I can create one. It took me about an hour to get to the point where I am now. (Needed to confirm name spelling and spelling of names in wiki articles- which does differ at times)

I will speak to some of the members and get some more history to clean this article up a little. --Salsany (talk) 04:56, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
